what's happening everyone my name is Alex and welcome back in today's video we are comparing
one of the latest mid-range devices from Vivo the Vivo v27 Pro to one of the latest mid-range
devices from xiaomi the redmi note 12 Pro now out of the two devices the Vivo v27 Pro
is about 50 dollars more expensive than the redmi note 12 Pro so is it worth spending
the extra 50 to buy the Vivo over the redmi note 12 Pro well we are definitely gonna find
out in today's video now I've also included a super short camera comparison between these
two devices and that one starts at this minute of this video alright before we go on any
further let's check out the boxes and see what comes in the box with each device alright
so both devices have pretty large boxes and inside the boxes you're gonna find a clear
case for each device you also have some booklets in there we have a USBC Cable in there and
then the redmi note 12 Pro are gonna find a 67 watt fast charger with the Vivo v27 Pro
are gonna find a 60 6 watt fast charger now the redmi 12 pro has a 5000 milliamp hour
battery inside where the Vivo v27 pro has a 4600 milliamp hour battery so charging the
Vivo from 0 to 100 is done about 50 to 52 minutes where the redmi note 12 Pro takes
about 55 to 60 Minutes to fully charge so really not that big of a difference for um
charging performance neither device supports some wireless charging so only wire them charging
now the battery life on the redmi Note 12 Pro is better than the battery life they're
gonna get on the Vivo v27 Pro mostly because we have that larger battery and the CPU that's
not as powerful but we'll talk about that shortly taking a look at both devices and
starting with the screens so the screen on the Vivo v27 Pro is a 6.78 inches AMOLED screen
that has a 1080p resolution and a refresh rate of 120 hertz where the screen on the
redmi Note 12 Pro is a 6.6 7 inches AMOLED screen that has a 1080p resolution and a refresh
rate of 120 hertz now of course the screen on the Vivo has curved edges where the screen
on the redmi has a flat screen so personally I do prefer the flatter screen that we get
on the redmi note on 12 Pro I feel that curved edges these days well we are kind of past
that now the biggest difference that I've noticed in between these two devices is when
you take the phones outside so the peak brightness on the screen of the redmi note 12 Pro is
about 900 nits where the peak brightness on the screen of the Vivo v27 Pro is about 680
nits so you will be able to see the redmi device much better if you take the phones
on outside and for me that's very important because well you have to look at the phone
when you're around outside so the redmi device does get the better screen even though it
is the more affordable device out of the Tomb both devices have a similar camera cutout
but the sensor on the Vivo v27 Pro is a 50 megapixel sensor where the sensor that we
have on the redmi device is a 16 megapixel sensor now these are some example pictures
that I took earlier today just so you can see how both devices take selfies and yes
the Vivo v27 Pro does better for selfies now the focusing camera on the Vivo you can also
record in 4k 30 frames per second where the maximum recording resolution for the redmi
device is 1080p at 60 frames per second so next I'm going to show you a quick recording
that I've done the front facing cameras just so you can see how the video quality it you
get from both devices okay and we are moving on to a quick recording done with the front
facing cameras on both devices so the maximum recording resolution on the redmi Note 12
Pro with the front facing camera is 1080p at 30 frames per second but it does seem that
the video is got some stabilization and going the maximum recording resolution on the Vivo
v27 Pro for that front facing camera is 4K at 30 frames per second but it doesn't seem
that we get any video stabilization at any resolution so 4K or 1080p so the video will
not be as steady on the v27 pro with a front-facing camera another difference between these two
devices has to do with the fingerprint scanner so on the Vivo v27 Pro the fingerprint scanner
is under the screen where the fingerprint scanner on the redmi device is built in the
power button so that's how it unlocks on the Vivo and that's how it unlocks on the redmi
device so about the same speed I'm gonna say even though I do prefer the built-in the power
button fingerprint scan that we have on the redmi device as for the always on display
well the Vivo v27 Pro can keep the display on at all times where the redmi device will
turn off the always on display after a few seconds so I do prefer the always on and display
on the Vivo v27 Pro now moving other frames here so the frames on both devices are made
out of plastic now they both kind of feel the same I'm gonna say none of them is more
premium than the other I'm gonna say but if you look at the top there you're gonna notice
that on the redmi Note 12 Pro we get a 3.5 mil audio jack something that we don't get
on the Vivo device and we also have the second speaker so on the redmi device you get a speaker
at the top and another speaker at the bottom on the Vivo device we only get the one speaker
at the bottom and the next I'm gonna play a short recording just so you can hear how
the speakers on the redmi Note 12 PRO Sound compared to the speaker that we have on the
Vivo v27 Pro but of course the speakers on the redmi device are better
[Music] [Applause]

moving at the bottom of both devices both devices can take two SIM cards but neither
device can take an SD card we have the same hole for the microphone we have the USBC charging
port and the hole for that um speaker the speeds for that USBC Port are the same on
both devices turning both devices around while their backs are made out of glass however
I do prefer the way the Vivo v27 Pro looks compared to the redmi device not to mention
the redmi device is a fingerprint magnet where you can really see fingerprints on the back
of the Vivo now for cameras they both have a 8 megapixel Ultra wide camera and then we
have a 2 megapixel macro camera the main camera is a 50 megapixel sensor on both devices and
it has Optical image stabilization on both devices so pretty cool for mid-range devices
I'm gonna say now with the Vivo v27 Pro you can record videos in 4k 30 frames per second
and you also get the video stabilization electronic video stabilization where on the redmi Note
12 Pro we don't get electronic video stabilization for 4K recording so only if you are recording
in 1080P at 30 frames per second on the redmi device so I kind of wish you would have had
the video stabilization for 4K recordings on the redmi device as well and I guess next
I'm going to show you a couple of um sample videos just so you can see how the video quality
is between these two devices all right we have a quick video test between the xiaomi
redmi note 12 Pro and of course the Vivo v27 and pro so for this recording I'm doing 4K
at 30 frames per second with the main cameras on the back of the two devices now even though
the main cameras on both devices have Optical image stabilization only the Vivo v27 pro
has electronic image stabilization as well so of course if you're walking if you are
moving the video will be steadier from the v27 pro when compared to the video that you're
gonna be getting from the redmi note 12 Pro so yeah this is our recording in 4k 30 frames
per second with the main cameras on the back of the two devices would look like okay next
we are moving on to another quick recording down the main cameras on the back of the two
devices now I've switched the resolution to 1080p at 30 frames per second on both devices
and at this resolution the redmi note 12 Pro does have video stabilization so now we have
video stabilization on both devices I'm going to stop here we're gonna pan left slowly
and I guess we'll Walk This Way once again so this is how recording done in 1080P at
30 frames per second with both devices would look like as for pictures taken with the main
cameras I guess it really depends how you like your pictures so if you like your pictures
to have more saturated colors the pictures do look more vibrant well you will prefer
the pictures from the xiaomi redmi note 12 Pro because all the colors are a bit more
saturated the pictures do look a bit more Vivid now what you're gonna get with the Vivo
v27 Pro are pictures that look closer to reality so pictures that I was seeing well the objects
that I was seeing with my own eyes so the Vivo v27 Pro does retain the original colors
and better that's what I'm trying to say so I feel that a lot of people will still prefer
the pictures from the redmi device just because of that more vibrant look but definitely leave
a comment down below and let me know your thoughts which pictures do you prefer the
ones from the Vivo or the ones from the redmi device alright and next we are moving on to
Performance and I guess this is what to find the biggest difference between these two devices
so if we open settings here and about phone and detailed info so on the Vivo v27 Pro we
have the mediatek dimensity 8200 that's paired with 8 gigs of RAM both devices have 128 gigs
of internal storage on the redmi Note 12 Pro are gonna find the mediatek diamond City 1080
and again 8 gigs of RAM the redmi device is also running Android 12 where the Vivo device
is running Android 13.
and if we open the antutu Benchmark on both devices you're gonna see a really big difference
here so the score that you're gonna get on the Vivo device is twice higher than the score
that you're gonna get on the redmi device if we open this um you can see in more detail
now I've also noticed that whenever they are doing anything on the Vivo v27 Pro it does
get much hotter than the redmi device so if you're playing a game after about half an
hour the Vivo device is literally burning you can also see that in in the antutu benchmark
test here so while running that test the Vivo device got the 11.9 degrees hotter where the
redmi device got about 5.7 degrees and hotter for the same test so yes overheating will
be a thing on the Vivo device and if we go to storage test here you can also see that
the internal storage on the Vivo device uh is much faster than the internal storage that
we have on on the redmi device so performance wise there is really no comparison the Vivo
v27 Pro is the much faster device but also the one that gets really hot so to quickly
conclude this video If you're looking for the more powerful device while the Vivo v27
Pro is much more powerful than the redmi note 12 Pro there is really no comparison these
two devices are not even in the same month class I also like the fact that the 4km video
recordings have video stabilization something that we don't get on the redmi device we only
get video stabilization for 1080p recordings so for that the Vivo is also better for everything
else the redmi note 12 Pro is the better device first of all we have a somewhat larger battery
inside since the chipset is not as powerful as the one that we have inside the v27 pro
you're also gonna get much better battery life the screen is a flat screen and I do
prefer a flat screen not to mention the screen gets way brighter so you can see the phone
on better outdoors and we also have dual speakers on this device plus NFC with the Vivo v27
Pro we don't even get an NFC chip inside it so you're gonna be able to make payments to
the redmi device but not with a Vivo v27 Pro so for being the cheaper device I filled the
redmi note 12 Pro is the better device out of the two even though it is not as powerful
as the Vivo device what do you guys think about these two devices definitely leave a
comment down below and let me know on your thoughts thanks for watching and I'll see
you guys in the next one
